Pay me a compliment...

    ...I need cheering up!!

    I am a great advocate of paying somebody a compliment when its due. Its amazing how a few small words from somebody can have a lasting effect on a person.

    My father told me of a time when he was talking to a colleague who was down on his luck with a job. He was offered a job abroad for a few months but wasn't sure to take it up. My father complimented him on his journalistic skills and said he should go for it.

    He did, and is still there 30 years later doing very well for himself and often remembers the compliment that he got.

    You should always pay somebody a compliment if its genuine!




    Ok, I know none of you and I don't deserve any compliments from any of you....so make it up! :P

    I respect your ability to ask for unwarranted compliments, it's rare nowadays for people to ask for such things and your ability to do so will get you places, Well done.

    Bearing in mind that the rule states there are no girls on the internet, this comment has backfired.

    I've got this, what - ailment? My doctor, a shrink that I used to go to all the time, he says that in fifty or sixty percent of the cases, a pill really helps. I *hate* pills, very dangerous thing, pills. Hate. I'm using the word "hate" here, about pills. Hate. My compliment is, that night when you came over and told me that you would never... well, you were there, you know what you said. Well, my compliment to you is, the next morning, I started taking the pills.

    Cialis rocks.

    "Tell me I'm not needy"

    "Now tell me it a 100 times".

    Agree with you about paying people compliments when they're due though...or even to cheer them up.

    I don't know if you're female but:

    "You're hair is only massive, girl!!"

    Very male and very straight! (I think that needs clarifying haha)

    Paying compliments and encouraging people to do so is so important!

    It is amazing how a few short words can have an influence on people!

    I used to work with under-privileged teenagers who had a very negative view of adults and rarely, if at all, received a compliment from them.

    I made it my business to pay them compliments (were due) and it was amazing to see what it did for them!
